This is actually for my wife who is the user of this software. In LR Classic you have this folder structure. You then decide that you would like to be able to use CC, mobile, web etc for posting, showing and viewing. So you create collections that are identical to the folders. You turn on syncing. Classic and CC will be on the same desktop machine.

1. Would you now have access to everything in the collections in classic, web, CC and mobile?

2. If you edit something in any of the four places , do the changes flow to all four places?
 
1: Yes
2: Yes
 
That was concise! ;) :D
 
"So you create collections that are identical to the folders." - Is this because syncing only addresses syncing collections?
 
OK, I turned on sync. Classic shows the collection as synced but there is nothing on the mobile or in CC.
First, you may simply have to give it a little more time. Secondly, make sure you are logged in with the same AdobeID on all devices.

Giving it a lot more time was the key. Thanks. I thought I might have lost it. :)
